The Universal Transmission is the world's first and only positively engaged, infinitely variable transmission (PE-IVT) and could reduce America's dependence upon foreign oil by 40% or better. The working CAD prototype shows a transmission with an engaged neutral that requires no clutch or torque converter.

Because it is completely scalable and is adaptable to virtually all applications from electric vehicles including SUVs to heavy equipment and tanks, from ships to windmills.

• It's truly infinitely variable -- always operating in the "sweet spot".
• It's constantly engaged.
• It doesn't use friction to change gears.
• It has metal gears that always remain engaged, giving drivers maximum performance.
• It never disconnects the engine from the load like standard or automatic transmissions currently do.
• It requires no clutch or torque converter, which reduces parts and expense.
• It's green. The fuel savings alone is enough to dramatically reduce pollutants, reduce effects from fossil fuels, and encourage energy independence. The effect on our air, water, land and economy could be dramatic as the Universal Transmission makes electric and hybrid cars a reality in not only passenger vehicles, but large trucks as well.

Yes. We have a fully working 3D CAD (computer-aided design) prototype. The right strategic partner will put this into a functioning, in-vehicle prototype.

The Universal Transmission might be one of the most green technologies ever invented. The fuel savings alone is enough to dramatically reduce pollutants, reduce effects from fossil fuels and encourage energy independence. The effect on our air, water, land and economy could be dramatic as the Universal Transmission makes electric and hybrid cars an affordable reality in not only passenger vehicles, but also large trucks as well.

If a transmission requires disengagement of gears to reach a higher gear, or requires a belt to connect to the drive train, or uses friction to reach a higher gear, the Universal Transmission should replace it. That is most transmissions. It also replaces the expensive electric controller in hybrids and electric vehicles making them competitive.

With this new transmission, drivers never need to change gears because the Universal Transmission has no clutch. Not only will truckers not need to shift gears but will also have the ratios needed to take their heaviest loads up an incline with ease. It should also result in reduced maintenance costs and fewer operator errors. By installing the Universal Transmission in semi trucks, the U.S. will realize its greatest reduction in gasoline consumption because trucks account for about half of all gasoline or diesel consumed for transportation.

Such is the nature of invention, innovation, and being willing to entertain a major engineering paradigm shift. . We're fortunate to have an inventor with great knowledge of gears but, even more important, a great passion for solving difficult problems. That passion has led to a determination to find a solution. He'll be the first to tell you, however, that anything truly unique in invention emanates from something beyond himself. Invention truly is 10% inspiration after 90% perspiration.

It's the first ever positively engaged, infinitely variable transmission. As such, it has the potential to eventually replace many of the existing transmissions, including automatic and manual transmissions, as well as the relatively new constantly variable transmission (CVT).

The Universal Transmission will bring these 7 changes to the hybrid vehicle industry:

1. Make the electric/hybrid cars competitively priced with standard vehicles.
2. Eliminate the expensive electric controller (used to regulate the amps being drawn out of a battery) in all electronic cars.
3. Greatly reduce the size of the battery necessary to power hybrid vehicles.
4. Increase battery life.
5. Move the electric motor to its "designed rpms" (meaning it will always being running at optimal efficiency).
6. Allow for the production of even lighter weight hybrid vehicles (increased performance and economy).
7. Allow for the production of larger hybrid vehicles, including SUVs and mid-size trucks because it now has a transmission with an engaged neutral that can handle greater torque right out of neutral. For example, a hybrid engine could now be installed in a Ford F350.
